  1. was Exidy's 1981 Venture really "too complex"?

    was Exidy's 1981 Venture really "too complex"? Decided to research Venture by Exidy for a video I'm doing and I noticed on the Wikipedia page it says the arcade game was too complex and that made it "out of place" in the arcade. Was that true? I remember seeing Venture in lots of arcades and I...

  3. pic of a coin box full of quarters?

    WOW jawhn!! These pics are amazing! I am having a hard time choosing. But thanks a million (quarters) for taking these awesome snaps! It'll be a few days till I record and upload the vid but I'll put it in this thread so you can see your handiwork. Super big thanks man! :)
  4. pic of a coin box full of quarters?

    Wow thanks for the suggestions and questions. Anything will do really. I guess if the coins could be lit to show their plentiful nature that would be cool. And probably the easiest way to make it look full would be to put a towel in the box and then dump a few dozen coins on top? Not sure how...
  5. pic of a coin box full of quarters?

    I have a favor to ask, does anyone have a picture of an arcade machine with its coin door open and the box inside heaped with quarters? It's for a thumbnail for a video I'm doing. I searched Google images and was surprised how difficult it is to locate such a picture.
  6. Dredd pinball missile button question

    aahhh thanks man
  7. Dredd pinball missile button question

    Hi there, I tried Googling this but figured I'd ask you experts. At the NW Pinball expo I got to play Dredd pinball and my previous experience is only on Pinball Arcade. On the hardware at the show, the left Missile Launch automatically fired whereas in Pinball Arcade I have to hit the flipper...
  8. Computer Space Desktop Version

    This is one of those times I wish there was an animated gif of Belloq from Raiders of the Lost Ark staring into the light and shouting "It's beautiful!"
  9. anyone fix Sega Game Gear cap issue?

    Thanks for replying folks. There's no huge rush, I mean if it can't be fixed for six months I am a-okay with that. I don't have the kit for parts or anything, but I'm totally willing to pay for the purchase of whatever is needed plus the labor plus shipping my unit back and forth. The only snag...
  10. anyone fix Sega Game Gear cap issue?

    Anyone do the capacitor replacement fix on Sega Game Gears? My Game Gear has both the weird screen issue where I need to tilt it low to see it and my sound is extremely low. If I hold the GG up to my ear I can hear the sound playing (headphones work just fine). Otherwise it works. I don't need...
  11. did Atari 2600 Jr's come with paddles?

    A friend of mine and I are arguing about how console makers are reducing costs by removing features and it caused me to wonder: did the Atari 2600 Jr come with paddles when it originally shipped?
  12. Neat Article from Starlog Magazine written in 1983

    Sounds eerily like the present video game industry
  13. GB or GBC hidden gems?

    Thanks to the Arcade USA youtube channel I recently found out about a couple of Japan-only games that intrigue me now: Final Reverse and Lunar Lander. I had a look at how many original GB games were only released in Japan and there's tons of them, too many to research each one. Anyone got...
  14. 23 Most Brutally Tough 80’s Arcade Games

    There's irony. I just posted videos discussing Defender (albeit the 2600 version) and arcade Sinistar. Coincidence? TSnLIpP0xK0 qw2JBAeJm_I
  15. Vectorbeam Warrior Rom updated to allow for new controls

    Necrobump of an old thread here .... I was going to try putting this analog version of Warrior on my MAME machine and now it appears all the content has been deleted. Any idea why?
  16. Judge Dredd kickback question

    Interesting .... thanks for the info, this is what I need
  17. Judge Dredd kickback question

    I just got the Dredd pinball pack for Pinball Arcade and I have a question about the actual real hardware. In PA the left kickback seems to catapult the ball up to the right where the sniper area is super easy but my guess is that performance probably was one of the first things to break down...
  18. Does any know anything about fixing a Vectrex?

    There's a pinball repair shop up here in Vancouver BC that also fixes arcade machines. I once asked if they would recap my Vectrex and the guy quoted me about $150. I didn't go for it because a retro video game shop was selling a fully working Vectrex for the same price but you could inquire if...
  19. Street Fighter 5 alternate costumes

    I don't normally care about alternate costumes but Capcom has revealed that Chun-li will have an option to fight in her Interpol uniform and I confess they got me. I "need" that in my life. So now I'm trying to figure out if these costumes are DLC we can buy later or are they only a pre-order...
